This is everything that I know about this, based on various sources.
- "Revolution 60" is the name of the plan being carried out by Crimson 09 (arch-evil chinese guy)
- That information - along with what the fuck said plan actually is meant to do besides nuking half the Earth or something - apparently is "explained more than it is in the game" (read: allegedly the only place you actually can learn this, spoilers: the book doesn't say anything about it).
- Minnie is supposed to be some kind of "James Bond type villain" crossed with a gnat and the plot somehow keeps confusing her and Crimson 09 as the actual main antagonist.
The first two things largely are from Wu itself from some livestream of the game where the guy did his best to not say at any point how shitty the game was. Wu was part of the audience, I forget why, but the salt in the staunch defense of the game is a large amount indeed. Keep in mind that the only reason I know what R60 even related to is because Wu outright said it. Not because of anything in the game or the book.
The second thing comes from Wu's aborted newspaper comic/audio drama version of a personal "Sonichu" where Holiday and Minnie are literally no different between the originals and the current versions 20 years later. I forget what that shitfest was called, but Minnie's scant description was literally "James Bond esque villain" and I can only guess the insect thing with her in R60 is a manifestation of some concept of her being a queen bee socialite.
The project was called
Election Eve. It had Wu's now-deceased dog in it. It was apparently intended to showcase BriWu's characters behind the backdrop of a school election. The project was so fail-tastic that even Wu-Tan's own college paper wouldn't print it (to contrast, fucking
Jay Geis got his comic into a school paper. Fucking Golden Knight failed less than Brianna Wu in this regard). The characters had the same naming methodologies and the same bizarre appearances. Here's a few:
This is Holiday. Note also the Election Eve logo, stolen from fucking
Parasite Eve. The characterization and style are clearly trying to show off sixties kische and camp, but with an autistic version of
Sailor Moon. In many ways, Wu comes close to this particular art from Moleman for this one:
For the uninitiated, this is the result of Moleman's OVER 9000 HOURS IN MSPAINT - a work entirely comprised of stolen content, completely unsourced. The ships in this shot are stolen from Wing Commander, the lasers and explosions are from RPGmaker, the background and city are from a PC game's FMV intro sequence, and the moon itself is
The World Engine, from Warhammer 40K.
But stolen content and bizarre eye positions aren't the only things on display! Minuette, our transparently evil villainess from
Revolution 60 has her origins here:
But the funniest piece from this was yet to come:
Now, first of all, let's take note here. Her name is Brea - which only-so-happens to be Aya, the Protagonist from
Parasite Eve's, last name. Her outfit, at a glance, is a fucking dead ringer for Jill Valentine's from
Resident Evil 3. However, Jill's outfit showed cleavage, and Brea's doesn't. I want you to take note on this: This image dates back to around the time
Parasite Eve 2 came out, which has Aya in a very specific outfit:
Essentially identical to Jill's outfit except she's actually wearing the jacket and it's a top that doesn't show cleavage. Bear in mind Wu already stole the logo and
never talks about Parasite Eve, in all the bullshit she spews about heroines in gaming. Methinks this is because she knows she ripped it off. But the far funnier part is actually the name, which noble
@NegaCWC was nice enough to point out....
Don't forget the dog (Crash), plus I think I may have discovered another link:
From her
character description:
Brea Anatamata --> Brea Ana --> Brianna? What do you think? It this Wu's transona or am I just becoming Alex jones?
